usa is president obama's super pac, and they decide they're going to come out with an ad that is devastating. it's about joe soptic, who lost his job when bain capital shut down gst steel. he'll talk about the ramifications of that on the health of his wife. watch this. >> when mitt romney and bain closed the plant i lost my healthcare. my family lost their healthcare. a short time after that my wife became ill. i don't know how long she was sick. i think she didn't say anything because she knew we couldn't afford the insurance. one day she became ill. i took her up to the jackson county hospital, and admitted her for pneumonia. that's when they found the cancer. by then it was stage iv. she passed away in 22 days. >> cenk: now wait a minute, is that fair? every time you close a plant or someone loses a job is the person who made that decision responsible for the healthcare of all those people going

forward? well, jayar is going to come out and say yeah, that's absolutely fair. that's a tough tough ad. here is another problem with it. that plant closed in 2001. unfortunately mrs. soptic passed away in 2006. hard to connect those two events. we'll talk about that in a little bit. here is another question. are the republicans fair? are we surprised by this because we're so used to the republicans being so fundamentally unfair, and that if democrats do anything similar to it, oh my god, how could you do that! that's a very fair question. here's the rnc talking about how president obama is a threat to the buyer country. >> mitt romney has to win for the sake of the very ideal of america. mitt romney has to win for liberty and freedom and we have to put an end to this barack obama presidency before it puts an end to our way of life in

america. >> cenk: an end to our way of life in america? if president obama wins, our way of life is over? they do that kind of hyperbole so often. people didn't even make note of that comment. oh yeah, the world will end if obama wins. and then they lie over and over again in their ads. they have a new ad about welfare that is nothing but a lie. it's a position that romney supported and now obama supports it and then they turn around and say, how could you. and then the famous life that you didn't build that. president obama was referring to roads and bridges. but they put this out any way. >> if you've been successful you did i get there on your own. if you got a business, you didn't build that, somebody else made that happen. >> my father's handed didn't build this company? my hands didn't build this

company? through hard work and a little bit of luck we built this business. why are you demonizing us for it. >> but they didn't. he was talking about roads and bridges. the republicans lie all the time. well, obviously the republicans are going to lie. but if the democrats do anything similar with that, it's a huge, huge issue. and then there is the hideous things that the republicans say. there is a a woman running for congress. her name is dr. marisha agana. she said, history has a way of repeating ms. itself. can you imagine if a democrat came out and referred to mitt romney as hitler or stalin. and look at michelle bachmann. watch this. >> going with that logic

according to our own health and human services secretary it isn't farfetched for the president to say we need to save healthcare expenses. the federal government will only pay for one baby to be born in the hospital per family or two babies. that could happen. >> cenk: cuckoo for cocoa puffs. that is 1 million% made up out of her crazy imagination. but what? she led the republican field for president for a while. that's standard operating procedures for republicans. and then rick santorum who also came in second for the republican presidential race. he told obama a two-bit dictator and then ran this ad against obama. >> imagine a small american town two years from now if obama is

re-elected. every day the residents of this town must come to grips with the harsh reality that sworn american enemy has become a nuclear threat. >> cenk: they're exchanging pictures of obama with ahmadinejad talking about how he's an american enemy? they're running this kind of loathesome crap day in and day out. the minute that the democrats do a tough ad and say wait a minute, you might have problems, not just showing that field but also with your healthcare proposal they say, how dare you. all right, so let's have a discussion about all the different aspects of that. i want to bring in the white house correspondent tommy, great to have you us. talk to me about this add fair, unfair what policy proposaant, go. >> gentlemen, when i first saw

the ad, i thought yeah, wow that's really harsh. burton has been making a lot of tough ads but this one was "pulp fiction" medieval. when i read the text for the ad, and i heard the facts checks saying that the man's wife did not die until five years later and also she had--she had a job when he lost his job so she lost her health insurance when she got injured on that job. so there a few things missing from the ad, but it's clear that joe soptic blames romney to some degree for his wife's death. it's clear that you know, whosoeverwhoever's fault it is, if joe soptic kept his job his wife may have been able to discover the cancer in time to treat her and save her life. yeah, it brings together the

issue of are you responsible for the things you do when somebody loses their job? i think the answer to this question well, was it avoid avoidable? could bain have avoided closing that plant? and also you know, what do you have as a policy for people like joe soptic's wife when they lose their insurance. that's where i think that this ad really had a potential to damage romney. what is he going to say? whether he's responsible for this guy losing his job or not he has got nothing for them once he does lose his job. he has nothing for them-wise. >> cenk: i have mixed feelings about the ad. i'll bring in jayar to fight about that. talk to me about the policy proposals. either way let's say romney was not at fault for that guy losing his job. it was going to happen either way. his wife does not have insurance. what does romney have for them if that's the case? >> exactly. right now he says he's going to

repeal obama-care on day one. people will no longer be able to get coverage for pre-existing conditions. they want to do this thing where they--the worst thing about this plan they want to sell insurance across states lines. but what that really means they'll gut all state insurance regulations that protect people from having their insurance being taken away from them if they get sick. that's what happen if they let them. it's things like that that obama-care protects against, and romney wants to repeal. >> cenk: right. i think that's a bigger problem and maybe he doesn't want to get into the heart of this conversation because it shows our ruthless his healthcare plan is. jayar, let me bring you in and we'll keep tommy as well. the thing is, five years apart. is it the responsibility of romney for every company that

they acquired and sold, a they're responsible for all the healthcare insurance five years is a stretch? >> it's all in the same realm to me. some people don't go to the doctors in 20 years. in 50 years i won't have the $100,000 for whatever they tell me i got so i'll just keep taking partnership pepto business o bismal oh for whatever they find. the five years isn't big enough for me. she was afraid to go, afraid to tell anybody that she was sick that long. that's a typical thing that happens to people. >> cenk: what about the firing people. companies going through transactions all the time. a lot of companies shut down. does that mean that they're responsible? >> that happens with people through companies. but when it's the action of his business being as we said about the whole bain capital thing.

they start up and shut them down for the purpose of making more money. they say well, it looks like our run is over here. >> may i saying is here cenk? >> cenk: tommy i want to you respond here. is jayar right? they're private equity. their job is to buy these companies and shut them down. and if it goes great great. if it doesn't, what do i do? >> it's answer. but there is a reporting by "the boston globe" that showed that it was the heavy debt load that bain capital put on this company to pay themselves back that was instrumental in them not being able to receive the down turn. in that you can see lay that at bain capital. he was there for that. as far as the five years goes, the timeline was that, you know,

romney left pain in '99. the plant closed in '01. she lost her job joe's wife, in either '02 or '03. and then since he still didn't have insurance for her that's when she would have stopped going to the doctor because they couldn't afford it. people do that. well you could get free care at the emergency room. no, it's not free. they will try to collect the money from you. >> cenk: absolutely. >> they'll take your wages and your house. people don't go unless they're about to die, which is exactly what happened here. the bigger issue here is do we want to live in a country where people have to almost die before they go to the hospital? >> cenk: we have to leave it right there. to answer your question, no, i don't want to live in that country. >> that's where you live. >> cenk: one last thing about this, to build on their points. the best point about why this ad is fair is, look, they would as tommy said, add debt to all

these companies. that's why so many of them went under. they did it without a care of the world to what happened to those employees. that's jayar's point. if you do that as a matter of course that's your business model, and then you don't give a damn if those people lose their pension or their healthcare, you should care about an ad like this because that's what you did and this is your reckoning. when we come back we have ads calling mitt romney a coward. >> has anyone ever called a wimp

>> oh, i don't know. >> cenk: as we start this conversation they asked mitt romney if anyone had ever called him a wimp. >> romney: if if i word about what the media said i wouldn't get much sleep. i sleep pretty well. >> has anyone ever called a wimp before? >> i don't believe so, no. >> cenk: but you have. let's talk about the character issue you're bringing up. why character in relationship to political story that is going back and forth. >> cenk: because it's about his evasive nature, and the number of things that he's the presidential candidates normally have to do. the tax returns are exhibit a but there many other exhibits, "b" through "p" probably. there is the way he talks to the media, the way he doesn't talk

to the media. how he rarely does an interview outside of fox news where he knows he's not going to be challenged that often. where he has been challenged, in fairness to a couple of fox news people who have done it, he complained and said they were out of bounds. he rarely talks outside of fox news. only taking three questions on that foreign trip. and so there is a media issue here. but the main thing really even more important to me than the tax returns is the positions he's taking and the way he's describing his plans for america. he's being as vague as he possibly can be. he's not submitting himself to scrutiny--last week, this is such a great example last week he announced his plan to strength the middle class or whatever it was. i was at his website. i was reading this thing. it's a one-page thing with bullet points. it said below it, click here for a larger version.

i thought okay, i'll click here and i'll get to the 25 page full document with the facts and figures and back up. when i click there had all i got was a largeer version of the same thing. just a bunch of bullet points. it's just ridiculous. >> cenk: it sounds like a comedy version like when you see in a movie. here is the largeer version literally larger. look on that issue i think you make a really good point when you say he's incredibly--well, i don't think it means he's weak. if you put everything out there everybody will swarm all over it, so better to hide it. couldn't you paint that as a reasonable strategy? >> no, no, no, no. that's real weakness. look if you believe--if you

believe--if you're running for president of the united states, and you believe that you have the character and the integrity and the plans to make the country a better place you should be, i would think really happy about talking about the details of those things, and you should be willing to talk about them in detail in everything that you possibly can. this is a real, real change. even john mccain--i was going to say george w. bush--john mccain had very detailed plans. he talked about them at length when he was on the campaign trail. >> cenk: michael, let me ask you about that. as i look at romney, and whether you call him weak or wimp, i got to be honest, when you talk about how obama is tough in the original "newsweek" article with all the killings, i hate that kind of talk. i don't think that makes you tough at all. that's not what a real man does. it's easy to drop a bomb on

somebody. you just press a button. i don't like that being chapterrized aschaptercharacterized as being strong or weak. but the classic tale tell thing that romney is known for does anybody including conservatives have any idea who the real mitt romney is? does he have a single core position that you can't move off of him or is he just a robot who thinks, i got to win i got to win and that's it. >> you got it exactly right. i don't think anybody really knows. you know, it's really remarkable to me that he could change his position from the time he was running for senate against teddy kennedy or to the time he was governor to now running in his two presidential campaigns, he has changed not one position, not two as you know, he has changed six seven eight really

core positions. we don't have a presidential candidate in recent history who has done anything remotely to that. not bill clinton not barack obama, not even george w. bush, he was pretty constant from the time he was governor to the time he was presidential candidate. this is important because he benefits i think to some extent from this kind of default assumption among swing voters and liberals who said he's really not that conservative. he's a moderate. he's just saying that stuff. how do we know he's just saying that stuff. maybe he was just saying that stuff back in 2002 when he was running for governor, and now this is what he believes. we have no idea. >> cenk: that's it exactly. we're out of time, but this guy i don't think he gives a damn about a single thing. so it is the biggest mystery in the world as to what mitt romney would do if he was president of the united states of america because we--conservatives don't

know liberals don't know. no one has any idea what his core believes are. that's a scary thing to hand the most important powerful position on the whole earth to a guy we don't know a goddamn thing about michael your absolutely right. michael tomsky, thank you so much. >> thank you. >> cenk: everyone is blaming for the sikh temple shooting, how about the nar? how about we talk about them? they don't mind if people get these guns. they don't mind if terrorists get the guns. they don't mind when criminals get the guns. >> it appears to to have been a disgruntled nut job who hated muslims but it is

let's look at who profits from these massacres. that's the gun manufacturers. listen to a nbc news report about what happened after the aurora, colorado shooting. >> after rocky mountain guns and ammo shot, brandon baker said the day after the bloodbath was the busiest he had seen. >> that day i showed up and there were 15 people waiting to get in. >> it's not just in aurora. statewide gun ranges have been packed. applications for gun permits jumped 43% from the previous week. >> after all these shootings the gun permits go up and nra goes, hmm, more money more money. they sent out a fundraising letter saying, quote the future of your second amendment rights will be at stake and nothing less than the future of our country and our freedom will be at stake. and they talked about how there could be a confiscation of our

fire armies and potentially a ban on semi-autoing weapons. there has been no such proposal, but they scare the ever-living crap out of the american people and say buy more guns. they're about to confiscate. run out and buy administer guns. if that doesn't do the job. that's okay. they have another plan. why don't we get all the politicians to make sure they make as lax a law as possible so we can sell more guns so we have the right of bearing arms, and let me give you a sense of scale here. you know that gun control advocates also give donations to politicians. you know how much they gave in 2011? well, that is actually later in the segment. hold on, let me give you the stats first. so 6.4 million guns made in usa in 2011. one in five americans own a gun. one in three households, by the way, have a gun in them.

49 states allow some form of concealed weapons in public. this is the tremendous success of the nra pushing more and more guns out there. like i said, 6.4 million guns sold every year. more, 5400 registered gun manufacturers in usa. that's exactly who the nra actually represents. $6 billion earned in domestic sales by gun companies. you think that $6 billion is not relevant to them? and then 300 million guns are privately held in the usa. how do they sell all those guns? one is the fear mongering. the other is you buy off the politician. sense of perspective. gun control guys gave those are the latest numbers we have, $9,400 to push for six different bills. now how much did the gun proponents give? well, if those guys gave $9,000?

what did they give? $18,000? $226,400. that's how much they gave to politicians to buy them to get their sport support on 24 different bills. if you think that they do not use their campaign donations you have not lived here very long. everyone has got a gun and politicians are corrupt. that's the reality in america. they guy gimme gimme gimme. people get shot with guns? who cares. the nra they say you don't understand. you're a liberal. you're no in favor of guns. and i've got all these nra members who want no regulation. that's also a lie. do you know if you're on the errorist watch list you can still buy a gun. there was 1228 gun applications of people that are on the terrorist watch list. 91% of them were approved! over 1,000 people on the

terrorist watch list were able to buy a gun. now, why in the world don't we have a law against that. the nra members they want a law against that they're not insane insane 82% of want say close the terrorist loophole. that number that you're seeing there, 69% they want gun show loopholes to be closed. do you know that hezbollah has bought from our gun shows? the guys who sell at a private seller at gun shows? timothy mcveigh and other mass killers have bought through the gun show loophole. the nra members say close the gun show loophole and the terrorist loophole. the nra say hell know. they don't represent the members. they don't represent the citizens. they represent the gun manufacturers who make $6 billion who want that money to keep flowing in and flowing in to them. do you think the nra doesn't

know that some of these guns like in the fast and the furious program, the real fast and the furious program where our atf tried to shut down the guns being sold in arizona to mexican dug cartels? who pushed those laws, the nra. do you think they don't know that those guns sold in arizona go right across the board into the hands of the mexican drug cartel? of course they know. they love it. they profit off of terrorists buying the guns, the mexican drug cartel buying the guns. they make money any way you slice it. in the next mass shooting, it was a lone nut job, an atheist i'll tell you, what is those who are making bills billions selling those guns for weaponry,

sometimes to killers drug cartel, that's atrocious. that's reality. when we come back, speaking of atrocious. boy scouts have perversion files on people looking over the kids at camps. they wouldn't turn it over to the authorities. we'll talk about that when we come back. >> it's shocking to read case after case of sex abuse of men preying on boys.

"the l.a. times" did an analysis of some of these documents released between 1970 to 1991 and they found that in one 125 cases men continued to molest

scouts after organization heard assault allegations against them, and 50 cases in which expelled abusers re-entered the program and molested again. in fact, "the l.a. times" even clued a quote from one victim that said, i was crying, and i reached around and hit max the scout leader, in the face, and i said i was going to quit the troop and tell my daddy. then we heard the others coming back, and max said, put your pants back on. also the boy scouts of america have released a response to the l.a. times article saying the boy scouts of america believe even a single instance of abuse is unacceptable, and we regret there have been times when the bsas best efforts to protect children were inefficient. for that we're very sorry and extend our deepest sympathies to victims. we're committed to the ongoing enhancement of our program in line with evolving best practices for protecting youth. this happened for decades. >> jennifer: look, it's the same

effect of cell phone on infant children, pregnant women. the fcc does not have a health person on the staff to do evaluations. we need not just a close look but labels. the public has a right to know about exposure. i want a labeling bill that can start to change the dynamics. >> cenk: and the "world health organization" is concerned about that too. now on to other issues. you've been in congress since 1997. tell me in all this time as you're now an out-going congressman, what are lessons learned? what did you learn about congress and how things got done. >> how easy it is to get into war and how hard to get out of it. how you can get into a war based on lies, and those who support the war their support is papered over. we are losing our country based on lies that take us into war. we're losing our country based on destruction of civil
